In conclusion, humans without social support -- whether it is older people or a newborn baby -- cannot function up to full capacity. Those individuals that are survivors of a deadly earthquake, or who have bipolar or other serious mental disabilities, are desperately in need of social support and all it can bring to the mind and body. Moreover, studying the various aspects of social support vis-a-vis social theories of aging gives the student a good understanding of the various ways society views and deals with the elderly -- and it is not always a warm picture. The changes that are needed to make society a more just, safe, and healthy place are mainly based on some form of social support, be it Medicare, Social Security, or the loving hands of a mother holding her newborn baby close to her heart.
